missing out

Post by golderrr »

i used to be really good friends in school with this girl back when we were both 12/13, she was so pretty and perfect in every literally single way. she was my first crush and i was obsessed with her for years, but i was always too shy ask her out. :?

now weve both turned 20 and we arent that close anymore and i cant help but feel like ive missed out, even if we got together now shes grown up so much. it hurts so much seeing someone you love grow up and knowing theyll never be how they were 8 years ago. i hate that i couldnt just build up the courage to ask her out, shes still very pretty but i cant help but be attracted to how she looked when she was younger, even most of the pictures of her from that time are gone. i pretty much wasted the only time i couldve dated someone her age legally and now im just stuck feeling angry with myself for being so stupid :cry: :cry:

At times life does suck.
You just have to suck it up and move on.
I was in a similar situation like yours.
I did however proposed to my crush. As it turned out she was too shy. I waited for a couple of years. She did too. And then I just lost interest in her as she grew up. She was not the same girl I fell for.
Whatever happened I think was for the good.
Even if we were to be in relationship I don't think it'd have worked long term. She would not have been okay with my attraction towards little girls.

I, too, lament the one that got away. But life goes on. I take solace in the fact that there will be other opportunities.... hopefully.

I like the new profile pic by the way. Did you draw it yourself?
